RX 560 vs RX 570 VS GTX 1050 TI Vs GTX 1060 3GB. WHICH ONE WOULD YOU CHOOSE?

Which One Is Better For Gaming?

in My Region 1050 ti is of lower price approx 178$

Out of all these i would pick the rx570. It is faster than the other (except 1060), and it has the most vram. It is pretty onpar with the 1060 3gb.

1060 3 GB is of less price than rx 570

In that case, the 1060 has the edge for value. How much more expensive than the 1050 ti is it? (In your regional currency, not US dollars)

 

Also, use @Origami Cactus or quote people so they can see your response.

Does Memory Size Matter 3 GB 1060 IS A TAD LESS THAN 8GB 570

8GB is not quite a tad less, it's less than half, but if you can't use all 8GB then it hardly matters. For 1080p gaming, 3GB is suitable, especially for a budget PC.

RX 570 all day every day. It pummels all of those you mentioned on overall value. And yes memory size does matter. You want a minimum of 4gb at 1080p now ideally. 3gb just doesn't cut it anymore.

 

The RX 570 is the best card for 1080p gaming, and has been ever since it came out. Nothing, not even the 16 series Turing cards comes close on value. And you get free games with it. What's not to like..

 

If you have to pay over the odds to get the rx 570, get it to avoid these horrible alternatives. The 3gb 1060 is limited by vram, the 1050ti is awful for the price they sell it at and the rx 560 is very difficult to find at a reasonable price on the new market so it's usually out of the picture anyways. I bought the 1050ti because I couldn't get a rx 570 at the time due to the mining situation. I regret not waiting. Don't do what I did.

I meant the price of 3 GB 1060 IS LESS THAN 8 GB/4GB RX570

Yes, by how much? And mow much more expensive is it than the 1050 ti? The 1060 3GB is about equal to performance of the 570, so for less money it's a good value 

[Tristerin]

Of the 4gb of HBM memory on my fury's - in 2k or 1080p - the average usage is LESS than 3gb.  At least these are the games I am 100% positive as Im playing them right now(BF5, Ring of Elysium, Anthem, Apex Legends) on ultra settings. 

 

It could be because its HBM memory and not GDDR tho as the communication rate doesn't need it to pack the VRAM full.  My guess anyhow.

 

Just info sharing on VRAM usage

That isn't the whole story though. Some games are AMD optimized, some are Nvidia optimized and some are neutral. But more importantly, the vram is the big problem here. Both have similar maximum framerates, but just because one is higher than the other doesn't mean the EXPERIENCE overall is as good. It's the minimum framerates and the frametimes that you need to look at. And vram is a major player in that. 3gb just isn't enough in some of the newer games at 1080p. The Division 2 for example, uses around 5gb at ultra. Black Ops 4 eats vram for fun and will give you nightmares on a 3gb 1060. Far Cry 5 is extremely intensive. Battlefield 5 wants at least 4gb at 1080p ultra.

 

The 1060 3gb lasts as long as it's vram allows it to. The rx 570 8gb lasts as long as it's performance allows it to. The 4gb version will also provide a better experience than the 3gb 1060.

The GTX 1060 may be more powerful than RX 570 in SOME games, but over the long term, RX 570 would benefit from the 4GB of memory on the card.

More and more games will use more than 3 GB of memory and if you don't have those GB on the video card, the video game will constantly shuffle data between the video card and the computer RAM, unless you reduce quality settings to get the VRAM usage below 3 GB.

I really wouldn't trust userbenchmark. Far too general, to the point of being useless.

Armor is not great, I would shoot for a different version.

It's the cheapest One

I'd vouch for the 570. Since buying this card, I am now in a position where I don't want to buy the 580 or the 1060 (3gb or 6gb). Looking at graphs from the internet, the performance differences aren't that much, hence I feel you should prioritize price and value.

8gb or 4gb

Ah sorry, I'm using the 4gb one. 

[Cheapassgamer]

8gb is priced at 25000rupees for strix edition and 4 GB is 18000rupees only armour 8gb from MSI is at 15000 rupees but the 3gb 1060 is 14000rupees

in My Region 1050 ti is of lower price approx 178$ 

RX570, obviously.

1GiB More VRAM, thus a bit better.

And also faster than the other cards.

 

There is no question.

I disagree, totally.

Having too little VRAM totally tanks your performance.

Even if its a bit more, its worth it.

Because its entirely possible to upgrade the other stuff, with a bit more VRAM you might be able to keep the GPU for a year or two more than to throw it away...

3GiB is shit today and also one of the reasons I upgraded to the RX480 ~2,5 Years ago or so.

Why Does The Armour Edition From MSI SUCK?

[Cheapassgamer]

Its cooling isn't that good, so the card throttles, not working at its full capabilities. As for the 1060 3gb version  people have been saying for since its release that 3 gb isn't enough, that its going to be filled, yet 2019 and its still doing just as good.

Will it throttle under light gaming?

RX 570 is the fastest of those cards in modern games. Yes, that includes the 1060 3gb. Games from the last 12 months have seemed to favour Polaris over low end Pascal, while it doesn't seem to translate to them favouring Vega over high end Pascal... which is odd. But yeah in games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Resident Evil 2 Remake, Division 2, Metro Exodus, ect RX 570 tends to be faster than 1060 3gb and ends up closer to 1060 6gb.
